+// Package netlink provides a simple library for netlink. Netlink is
+// the interface a user-space program in linux uses to communicate with
+// the kernel. It can be used to add and remove interfaces, set up ip
+// addresses and routes, and confiugre ipsec. Netlink communication
+// requires elevated privileges, so in most cases this code needs to
+// be run as root. The low level primitives for netlink are contained
+// in the nl subpackage. This package attempts to provide a high-level
+// interface that is loosly modeled on the iproute2 cli.
